It's Alright Lyrics

When I saw you that first day

You just took my breath away

And I knew, somehow, I had to win your heart

After weeks of turn-me-downs

You let me show you the town

But I could feel the tension from the start

As the year came to an end

I thought we were more than friends

So I told you that I loved you at first sight

But the moment faded fast

You told me about your past

When you told me how he hurt you we both cried

It's alright

Lay your head upon my shoulder close your eyes

It's okay

Let me hold you 'till those memories go away

Don't you worry, I'm right here

I'm not going anywhere

It's alright. It's alright

Then you told me about him

Felt so right 'till you moved in

That's when you found he had another side

He was jealous to extreme

Had a temper, could be mean

And the first time that he hit you

You both cried

But it got worse every day

Soon you knew you couldn't stay

But you also knew he'd never let you go

So you made your move one night

Made it here before daylight

Spent the next few days afraid and laying low

It's alright

Lay your head upon my shoulder close your eyes

It's okay

Let me hold you 'till those memories go away

Don't you worry, I'm right here

I'm not going anywhere

It's alright. It's alright

Then, you said you loved me too

But you needed to work through

All the pain and disappointments from your past

And you hoped I wasn't mad

That's when I stopped you and said

"I will wait for you and you don't have to ask."

It's alright

Lay your head upon my shoulder close your eyes

It's okay

Let me hold you 'till those memories go away

Don't you worry, I'm right here

I'm not going anywhere

It's alright. It's alright
